THANK YOU SID PRICE

I feel that Mr. Price has hit the nail on the head.  Not only does this pertain to "trainers", but it is also a concern that so many hobby breeders think they can advise on health and diet issues of birds.  If you don't have the credentials, please don't try to advise others how to take care of their companion bird.  Avian vets, trainers and nutritionists have spent years becoming the professionals they are.  They are the ones we need to go to for help.  Those of us who are professional breeders are in the position to help out with teaching proper hand feeding technique.  But, ONLY FOR THE SPECIES WE RAISE.   There is nothing more important than research and education so you can provide a safe and healthy environment for your bird.
